Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Antibiotics
  • Disease

Sherwood L. Gorbach spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Microbiology, Surgery, Gastroenterology and Feces. His Internal medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Clostridium difficile and Endocrinology. His Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Lactobacillus, Anaerobic bacteria, Diarrhea and Bacteroides.

His Surgery research incorporates themes from Incidence, Neomycin and Intensive care medicine. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Gastroenterology, Sepsis is strongly linked to Abscess. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Food science and Coliform bacteria.

His most cited work include:

  • Infectious Diseases (2845 citations)
  • Practice Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Skin and Soft Tissue Infections: 2014 Update by the Infectious Diseases Society of America (1262 citations)
  • Practice Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Skin and Soft-Tissue Infections (1230 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Sherwood L. Gorbach mostly deals with Microbiology, Internal medicine, Antibiotics, Gastroenterology and Surgery. Sherwood L. Gorbach interconnects Cefoxitin, Anaerobic bacteria and Bacteroides in the investigation of issues within Microbiology. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Clostridium difficile, Endocrinology, Feces and Immunology.

His studies examine the connections between Immunology and genetics, as well as such issues in Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, with regards to Weight loss. His Gastroenterology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Small intestine and Ileum. His Surgery study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Intensive care medicine.
